Kan. Oct. 25 -- KANE will be signing autographs from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Landon
Arena, just prior to the WWE event at the facility - Credit to WWE.

Tuesday
15th October - "One
thing that really bothered me about the show was that after a stellar,
mind-blowing Tables, Ladders and Chairs Match in which all the competitors gave
us 110 percent, they ended the show on a confusing note in my eyes. We had a
crowd that was on the edge of its seat from start to end, Kane retaining the Tag
Team Titles by himself because his partner was injured. Just when I thought it
was all said and done with that great finish, Triple H and Ric Flair come
walking out and quiet the crowd by accusing Kane of murder. I understand
storylines need a beginning, but after the effort everyone put into the match,
that to me seemed to take away everything that had been accomplished in the
ring" - Droz, regarding 10/07/02 RAW, credit to WWE.

Wednesday
9th October - On
RAW, Kane defended the Tag Titles (and retained) all by himself against four
other teams in a TLC match. But wait, that's not it! After the match
Triple H came out with Ric Flair and said he knew all about "Katie Fick".
Katie Fick's not happy because she's dead. Triple H claimed Kane murdered
Katie Fick ten years ago!

When every single RAW superstar showed up to RAW yesterday, there was a huge
meeting. They were told by agents that RAW needed to shape up and shape up damn
fast. They were told the following:

1. Vince McMahon is going to have storyline writers incorporate more storylines
that will continue on for weeks. (IE: "Kane being a Murderer" and
Victoria bringing up Trish's past.)

2. In order to get some of SmackDown!'s 'formula' incorporated into RAW, Michael
Hayes has been moved to the Raw team, while Bruce Prichard will now be a part of
SmackDown!

Some of the boys in the Lockeroom felt it was a great idea while others said
"Vince still doesn't get what Heyman does, so he figures Michael can
explain it to Brian Gerwertz - Credit to WrestleZone.

"As an added bonus at TV this week, I finally put an end to my Kane choke
slam streak. For those of you who haven’t noticed, I have been choke slammed
by Kane on every TV show and PPV since his return to action. THE MAN HAD MY
NUMBER. Turns out all I had to do was quit having matches with him, go
figure." - Lance Storm, http://www.stormwrestling.com.

"I'm from Australia and I was flicking through the local TV cable guide and
it had a little advertisement for WWE No Mercy. All the advertisement showed was
Kane's new mask. More than likely it's time for a run for Kane at the top,
obviously since he's in the main-event that's legit. However, pay-per view
advertisements like this one doesn't confirm he'll win, just a note I thought
I'd pass along" - Credit to http://www.wrestlezone.com.

Saturday
5th October - It's OFFICIALLY Kane's 5th year
in the WWE today! Five years ago, Kane made his debut at Badd Blood,
ripping the door off the Hell in a Cell and taking out The Undertaker.
Five years on, Kane has had many title runs and is currently one half of the Tag
Team Champions along with The Hurricane and he's the Intercontinental
Champion! Kane also won the WWE title within 9 months of debuting in the
WWE, although short lived, Kane proved he could kick it with the big boys in the
company. Like big brother Taker has said, Kane isn't even close to peaking
yet. And that's saying SOMETHING, especially after all Kane has
accomplished! Wishing you all the best Kane - thanks for the past five
years of entertainment, hope to see you for many more years to come.

Tuesday 1st October -
It's gonna be FIVE Years of Hell Fire & FREAK'N Brimstone this upcoming
Saturday, October 5th!!! Over these past five years, he's been a champion
11 times, layed a wet one on Terri, became the first ever WWE/WCW tag team champs
along with big brother Taker and lasted 56 minutes in the 2001 Royal Rumble,
eliminating 11 people which is over a third of the whole FREAK'N match - I'll
stop there, cause you don't wanna get me started on the Hurricanerana on
Albert!!! Kane will be out and about signing autographs at an appearance
which you'll find details of below so if you're in the vicinity of Sacramento
California on Saturday, pay Big Red a visit and thank him on behalf of his
BILLIONS of fellow freaks all over the world for entertaining us for the past
five years, physically and inspirationally! Be SURE to stop by here on
October 5th, we'll be partying like it's 1999!!! Err...just stop by!
One more thing...please click HERE to fill in a form with your thanks, support
and comments to Kane, which will be published on the site - the more, the
merrier!

RAW: KANE became the Intercontinental Champion for the second time in his WWE
career (He is a double champ now, seeing as he is one half of the WWE Tag Champs
along with The Hurricane). Also, by winning this match, Kane goes on to No
Mercy to face HHH in a Title Unification match which will leave only one singles
title on the RAW brand, making the winner, "RAWLY" undisputed!
Best of luck to everyone's favourite Big Red Machine!!!

Here's the WWE's take on the RAW happenings: The Machine has been on a tear since bursting back into WWE. Just one week after becoming a Tag Team Champion, Kane upset Chris Jericho on RAW to win the coveted Intercontinental
Championship! Should Kane continue his hot streak, he'll find himself in a battle against the World Heavyweight Champion at No Mercy. Eric Bischoff revealed his plan to unify the IC Title and the World Heavyweight Championship at the October
pay-per-view - Credit to WWE.
After RAW ended, HHH and Kane had a stare-down. Kane finally got HHH to get in
the ring. They fought for a couple of minutes before Kane hit the chokeslam and
left with his 2 belts. HHH posed for a few minutes. He started to leave, but he
went all the way around the ringside to do it. He argued with a bunch of guys
with a bedsheet sign that said "HHH Sucks" and then he argued with
some guy who was really pissed. HHH just kept pointing to the ring and then to
the World Title before blowing the guy off and leaving. No return date announced
- Credit to WrestleZone.

Overall WWE management was pleased with last night's RAW show. The constant
raving about "shut up and wrestle" from internet media, a column on
WWE.com, and Jim Ross in his Ross Report got through to WWE pretty good as they
put 8 matches on last night's show as opposed to the normal 5 or 6. WWE thought
the Kane victory was well done as well as the continued push of Randy Orton -

public is encouraged to attend - Credit to WrestleZone.

The original plan for Kane's return was to have him on SmackDown!, but since RAW
has been noted as the 'weaker' of the two shows, they decided to change plans -

Tuesday 24th
September-
Kane & The Hurricane capture the Tag Team titles from The UnAmericans on RAW
last night. This is Kane's 7th WWE Tag Title held!

Tuesday 17th September-
Booker T made the challenge on RAW and the UnAmericans accepted. At
Unforgiven it will be The UnAmericans Vs Booker T, Goldust, KANE and Buh Buh Ray
Dudley.

The No Mercy poster is advertised with Kane's latest mask. Under the
mouth-open area it says "No Mercy". Hopefully this should mean
BIG things for Kane. Click here to see the

Ross From Ringside by Jim Ross: Great to see Kane back in action after his
bicep surgery. He seems poised and ready to take his career to another level and
has already established himself as one of the best big men ever in this company.
The seven-foot, 300 pounder is an awesome athlete.

I first saw, and then signed him to our company, about a decade ago while he was
competing in Smoky Mountain Wrestling based in Knoxville, Tennessee. It was easy
to see then that Kane was special and his size and athleticism were only
surpassed by his professionalism and character. Keep an eye on this big monster!

Magazine.

Friday 6th September-
This past Sunday, general managers, Eric Bischoff and Stephanie McMahon appeared
during the Dallas, TX, live event. Stephanie had promised earlier in the night
that she would have Eric Bischoff ejected if he showed up, which he eventually
did. Bischoff happened to appear after Kane had finished a match on this
Smackdown! brand live event. Kane was ordered to chokeslam Stephanie but
Bischoff was promptly sent for the ride instead - Credit to WrestleZone.

Tuesday 3rd September - When Kane was scheduled
to return after a several month lay off due to a torn bicep, WWE promoted
"The Big Red Machine" to appear at SmackDown! brand house shows
against Kurt Angle.

While at first glance it may seem like WWE originally planned for Kane to return
as part of the SmackDown! brand, that doesn't seem to be the case. According to
various sources, WWE purposely false-promoted Kane to avoid what happened when
they had Chris Jericho and the UnAmericans switch from SmackDown! to RAW.

When one of the first cliffhangers on WWE television as far as the brand
extension goes and wrestlers jumping from roster-to-roster, they didn't get the
shock value they had hoped for. When planning Jericho and the UnAmericans to go
from SmackDown! to RAW, WWE took them off of SmackDown! house show line-ups.
This led many internet journalists to speculate that it would be those four who
would make the jump to RAW. As everyone knows by now, that is exactly what
happened.

WWE apparently made this move with Kane, promoting him for the SmackDown! house
shows before his television return, attempting to swerve the internet and have
them report he would return with the SmackDown! brand, which many journalists
including myself speculated on, only to have him debut out of nowhere on RAW
last week as they did - Credit to WrestleZone.

Monday 2nd September- House Show Results (8/31/02) - Corpus
Christi, Texas: Kane Vs Bull Buchanan: It's great to see Bull back! Anyway, Kane
comes out to a lot of pops and he pretty much dominates the match with Bull
getting in several key offensive moves. Bull even jumped from the top ropes
which really impressed me. Of course Kane one, and I kept chanting
"Kanearoonie" but he didn't do anything of that sort. Most people
didn't recognize Bull but once he started leaving the ring early on, he
immediately got heel chants for being a chicken - Credit to Rajah
WWF.

Several reports from the SmackDown! house show in Corpus Christi, Texas
involving a Kane interpromotional match against Bull Buchanon were pretty
interesting. While a lot of educated fans knew it was the real Kane, a lot who
sent in reports mentioned that a huge section of the crowd was shouting to Kane
in the ring saying he was fake. This of course being due to Kane returning last
Monday on RAW with a completely different look - Credit to WrestleZone.

Due to Bischoff's RAW wrestlers losing the chance to compete for the
Undisputed Title, it is expected that he will do something shocking, which seems
to be pointing towards creating a RAW World Title (although not confirmed).
Additionally, Kane and HHH are looking to have a feud soon, possibly beginning
within the next few weeks, but there is no word yet on when it will turn into a
PPV match - Credit toWrestleZone.

On the 30th August episode of Byte This, Kevin Kelly and Dr. Tom addressed
the number of questions, e-mails, calls and instant messages they'd received
over the week on the issue of a 'fake' Kane. Kevin and Dr. Tom's reaction,
gestures and comments on this were priceless! They were like "WHO the
hell else WOULD it have been?!?!?" - Credit to A
Hug 4 Kane.

"Great to see a leaner Kane back on RAW. He's down to only 275-280
pounds. And yes, that was the real and original Kane" - J.R, credit to WWE.

"Seeing Kane make his return, especially when it involved interrupting
the Un-Americans, was definitely worth the wait. It is great to see him able to
return to the ring and add new flavor to an already exciting show. I am looking
forward to seeing him work his magic once again" - Droz, credit toWWE.

Thursday
29th August -
Kane finally made his long awaited return on RAW. He came out and
kicked UnAmerican ass. This Kane had a new mask and a new costume, was
slimmer, and could do the Kane-A-Rooni!

There has been a lot of talk about the shocking
difference in appearance Kane had last night as opposed to his previous stint in
WWE. Many were under the impression that it wasn't the real Kane, Glenn Jacobs,
but a fake Kane.

People tend to draw that conclusion from the difference in size. Many felt, and
rightfully so, Kane looked smaller last night than he had in his previous WWE
run. With an injury like a bicep tear, you can only hit the gym, especially when
that's where the original bicep tear took place.

Kane also had a brand new look last night, which exposed more of his face than
his old masks would, leading a lot to believe that it might not even be the real
Kane. That was Glenn Jacobs, the legitimate Kane, despite the difference in
appearance - Credit to WrestleZone.

Sunday 25th August -
"After my report yesterday regarding Kane being scheduled for
SmackDown! house shows in September, Kane has been pulled from the card.
Originally, it was scheduled to be Kurt Angle vs. Kane in a singles match, but
Kane has been pulled from the show leaving no announced replacement for Kurt
Angle thus far. The same house show that Kane was scheduled for in September,
Undertaker is scheduled to work as well. His match is scheduled to be against
Brock Lesnar, but it is being billed as an interpromotional match due to
Undertaker being a RAW brand superstar." - Credit to WrestleZone.

"WWE continues to hype the return of Kane with continual teases and
insinutations that he is about to join one of the Raw or Smackdown! roster. In
his latest Titan Tron video clip (and I can't remember the exact words) Kane
talked about having a dance with the Devil and a date with his mistress. That is
open to many different interpretations on who the "Devil" is (Eric
Bischoff? Vince McMahon?) but I think we can all agree that the
"mistress" in question has to be Stephanie. The word mistress has a
lot of different meanings and because people are usually only familiar with one,
they forget that one of them is a woman of high power or authority. However,
when all is said and done, it's silly to hang on to every word in a literal
sense since the message was likely only thought up to spark interest and get
people talking. I think a very simplistic way of thinking of it is that Kane has
a meeting with Bischoff and a dance with Stephanie and from there, he will or
has he stated already has chosen his path. Rumors are abound that Kane will be
joining the Smackdown! roster and I tend to agree with that assessment so
whenever he shows, look for this to probably occur. I think WWE would be best
served to keep Undertaker and Kane in different brands due to their complex
relationship. Oh yeah and just as an aside, to everyone who thinks that the Kane
message is referring to Undertaker and his wife Sara, I hate to burst your
bubble but I don't believe there are any plans at all to bring Sara back.

Before I wrap up the talk on Kane, as reported on the newsboard it appears as if
the "Big Red Machine" will now be known as the "Big Freak'N
machine" and will undergo a physical change of sorts by way of a slightly
new mask. I suppose there's no real purpose to it except to take this absence of
his as an opportunity to freshen up his look and present him in a different, and
possibly more human light. However, for people STILL waiting for Kane to be
unmasked, just let it go already because it's obviously not going to happen
anytime soon. In fact, I hope they never unmask him or they can kiss his gimmick
goodbye." - Credit to Rajah WWF.

Friday
23rd August - As many of you know and as Matt
reported yesterday, Kane is expected to return during the next several weeks.
WWE has been hyping a return in the very near future with constant interruptions
on both RAW and SmackDown! during in-ring segments.

In somewhat of a surprising story, WWE has added Kane's new T-Shirt "The
Big Freak'N Machine" on it's WWE ShopZone website. The interesting this is
- his new mask that he will wear upon returning is displayed on the back! -

Thursday
22nd August -WWE will be having a SmackDown!
brand house show in Billings, Montana on September 14th. At this point, Kane is
advertised to work this house show in a match against Kurt Angle.

This could mean a number of things. One, it could be a way for WWE to throw off
people who pay attention to things of this nature expecting Kane to be on
SmackDown!, but ending up on RAW. Two, it could mean he is working the house
show (which is a Saturday show) just to help live attendance and debut on RAW
the following Monday. Three, it could mean the obvious - Kane will be part of
the SmackDown! crew.

There is always the possibility that Kane will return before then, which seems
to be the most logical option as that particular house show is nearly a month
away and WWE has already kicked promotion to Kane's return in high-gear the past
two weeks - Credit to WrestleZone.

"Kane made an appearance at KB Toys Outlet's grand opening in Wilmington,
Del. on Aug. 10. The two-hour event seemed to be a success with a very long line
being cutoff early. Many children (with parents) were in attendance. Kane had
his hair pulled back and was wearing his mask (I guess X-Pac returned it for
this appearance). It seemed to be a good promotion for KB and indicated high
popularity for Kane." - Doug Peacock, credit to Wrestling
Exposed.
Monday
19th August -"Kane is healed and ready
to return to WWE TV" - JR's Ross Report at WWE.

"When Kane returns, it is likely that Stephanie McMahon and Eric Bischoff
will be battling for his signature."

"WWE continues to hype the return of Kane to television, but in a nice
touch there has been no real word on what brand he will compete on as his
"The Fire Still Burns" promo has aired on both Raw and Smackdown! this
past week. For anyone wondering, Kane is pretty much officially cleared to
return to wrestling but WWE has held off on re-introducing him back into the mix
because everyone seems paired off at the moment and it'd be more appropriate to
probably wait until the PPV or some time around it so that they can put him into
a brand new storyline that will build up to the September PPV. In the meantime
though, they are trying to make his return seem like a big deal by showing the
promos which I think is a great idea although I'm pissed that they didn't do
that to Chris Benoit. Anyway, I think Kane will have to return as a face, but a
heel turn soon thereafter is not out of the question, although somewhat
doubtful. I also have a feeling that Kane will be used on Smackdown! since it
would not only keep away from the Undertaker but it would give Smackdown! a
potential main eventer, especially with Hollywood Hulk Hogan's expected absence
(more on this later) and the somewhat recent defection of Triple H" - Rajah
WWF.

Sunday
11th August - "Kane is reportedly all
set to make his return from bicep injury/surgery, although it isn't clear what
roster he will wrestle on as his return is being shown and hyped on both Raw and
Smackdown!. With the nWo disbanded, there really is no storyline for him to dive
back into on Raw, but with Undertaker there and seemingly outnumbered against
the UnAmericans, perhaps Kane will join him there to fight the good fight
against Storm and Christian. I guess we'll see, and don't be surprised to see
Kane pop up this week or sometime around Summerslam." - Credit to Rajah WWF.

Friday
9th August - "It was great seeing Kane
this week, and he looks to be very well-rested and in great shape following his
bicep injury. The young monster’s return is much-anticipated, but the question
is, will he be appearing on Raw or SmackDown!?" - JR's Ross Report at WWE.

Tuesday 6th August -
Kane's return has been guaranteed imminent now by the promo video that was aired
on RAW last night. It ended with the punch line "The Fire Still
Burns". Not long till we see The Big Red Machine on TV again!

Paul Bearer has written his Latest
Commentary for WWE.com, and there's great news! His wife of 23 years,
Dianna, who has been battling cancer for the last year, recently received the
results of her latest exam. According to her doctor, the cancer is gone.

Sunday
4th August - RUMOR: "From a very
reliable source in WWE, we received some information regarding Brock and Kane,
and the PPV posters that are being designed as I write this.

For the Unforgiven PPV that will take place in September, it features Brock
Lesnar on the poster, and underneath are the words:

"WHO IS NEXT FOR THE NEXT BIG THING!"

The No Mercy poster for October is a bit interesting. As of now, WWE has 3
posters currently designed for this PPV. All three have Kane featured on the
front. What is more interesting, is that all three posters feature 2 different
masks for Kane. Kane will definitely be back with a new mask.

The first poster, has a Black & Red mask, which covers mainly his eyes, and
leaves his bottom face & mouth fully exposed.

In another poster, they feature Kane in a mask very similar to the "Phantom
of The Opera" mask Undertaker wore a few years back.

The third poster has the same mask as the Phantom mask. However, in the
background of the poster shows many skulls and crossbones graphics.

Sunday
4th August - Kane has been released from
doctor's care after his torn biceps and will be returning soon, much to the
delight of all of us.

On another note, J.R said "It took me all of two weeks to get comfortable
with the new RAW announce position which sets on the floor between the stage and
the last row of ringside. We are closer to
the pyro, which can get a little warm, and it is definitely louder than being at
ringside, but that's certainly not a deal breaker." (Kane's
return pyro will probably scare J.R and The King to the other side of the USA!)

Wednesday 17th July - Fan Frenzy: Crown
Casino was overwhelmed by WWE fans who this morning lined up in one the longest
lines crown has ever seen!

Fans started queuing from 4am Friday morning, the line stretching from the crown
showroom to the carpark! Kane walked the entire line giving fans high fives as
thousands of fans brought tickets to Fan Frenzy.

Kane & Terri made an appearance at Toys 'R' Us Melbourne Central.

Toys 'R' Us Chatswood was jammed packed Thursday, WWFDU fans getting the chance
to jump in line first!

Over 1000 fans jammed packed Myer Melbourne Tuesday to see Kane & Terri make
their first public appearance in Australia.

WWE representative Roger Marment welcomed fans and promised that "Fan
Frenzy" will be another huge event part of the Global Warning Tour banner.

Fans asked Kane & Terri questions who both were very warm to the HOT crowd
that went crazy when they joined the stage. Terri says she was asked to wear the
"Fan Frenzy" T-Shirt but instead rubs the t-shirt all over herself and
throws it to the crowd!

Thursday 11th July -
Today (Tuesday) I went to see Kane & Terri in Melbourne, Australia. I didn't
expect the turn out to be that big but it was a pretty big crowd with about 1000
people crammed in a small ballroom. By the time I got there it was pretty much
packed and for 20 mins they played Forceable Entry music. A host from a radio
show we have here was hyping fan frenzy and telling us how its going to be great
and that we will get to see Kane & Terri later.

Terri came out first and of course received a huge pop because over here we're
happy to see any WWE superstar. Kane came out in casual clothes and of course
with a mask on. They had a few questions from people in the crowd but these
people asked really dumb in-character questions like "how did it feel to
win the WWE title" when I really wanted to know if he was coming to Global
Warning because it is only the Smackdown crew. Kane said that he would return in
less than a month and that he’s happy for his 'brother' the undertaker and
everything he’s done.

They did a lot of hyping for fan frenzy, Terri talked about how she loved the
fans and that fan frenzy was a chance to get to spend some time with the fans. A
few idiots in the crowd tried to start up a 'what' chant. It was very hard to
see because we did arrive pretty late and Kane was sitting down. Then came the
autograph signing and I wasn't in the mood to wait 2 hours so I left. All in all
I only really got to SEE Kane for about 1 minute in total but I'm just happy to
see a WWE superstar here - Credit to WrestleZone.

Sunday July 7th -
World Wrestling Entertainment will have a "Fan Frenzy" event,

Kane is about four weeks away from returning from biceps surgery. Along
with Terri, Kane will be traveling to Sydney and Melbourne, Australia, next week
to do promotional work for World Wrestling Entertainment's Aug. 10 event in
Melbourne. Kane is not scheduled to wrestle on that event as we speak - Credit
to The Ross Report at WWE.
Friday July 5th - The following rumors
come from the Informer column of the WWE August 2002 Magazine:

After vacationing in a resort somewhere in the South Pacific, word was received
that Rikishi and Kane are busy engineering a plan to deliver some payback to a
superstar neither one likes. The plan is so elaborate that it could involve six
other superstars and would precipitate one of them being traded. The final
sticking point revolves around a former commissioner who realizes that, should
he chose to participate in this scheme, his career will be altered forever.

Thursday July 4th- There is a tentative plan for Kane to return to
WWE around SummerSlam time. It appears as though right now he won't be able to
wrestle come time for SummerSlam, but they hope he will shortly there after so
he can return around SummerSlam to build a program with someone for when he is
ready to return to in-ring action - Credit to WrestleZone.

"Kane is rehabilitating his injured biceps virtually everyday and is well
on his way to a full recovery within the next six weeks or so." - J.R's
Ross Report at WWE.

This morning (June 21st 2002) Kane was in Cleveland, Oh promoting the
WWE. I did not get to hear all of it, but here it goes. He expects to be feuding
with X-Pac when he gets back, over his mask.

For promotional appearances, he has been wearing an old beat up mask (I guess
the WWE does not want him to be recognized as Isaac Yankem). He brushed off the
rumors that he is getting a new outfit and mask. He said that he plans on being
back in 6 weeks.

He said that he was proud of his "brother" for winning the title again
(keep in mind that he was not using his Kane voice, so it came of kind of weird
as they kept breaking and going back in to Kayfabe) - Credit to WDC.

well with therapy and has started to work on rotating his hand, which is causing

{Sunday 5th May
2002} Kane out 3-4 months - Kane tore
his right biceps while training on Sunday and will be out of action three to
four months, according to World Wrestling Federation Senior Vice President of
Talent Relations Jim Ross.

"This is a very unfortunate injury to one of our most valuable talents,"
J.R. said. "Timing is never good, but this injury occurring so close from the
brand extension will be challenging for us. Kane's surgery went very well and he
is expected to be back at 100 percent in four months, as the entire biceps was
torn."

"Dr. James Andrews operated on the former Federation Champion on Tuesday in
Birmingham, Ala. Andrews -- one of the leading orthopedic surgeons in the world
-- has performed surgeries on numerous other superstars, most recently on Kevin
Nash, who also tore his biceps."

Kane is doing well one week after biceps surgery and will have the stitches
removed from his arm on Tuesday.

"Happy birthday to the Big Red Machine today. This big horse is sorely missed
from our live events."

"Kane is set to return in three months from his torn biceps." -

{Saturday 30th
March 2002} "Kane's
promo on SmackDown! was a classic moment for the big fella, who I feel can be a
long-term, main-event star in this company for years to come. With some subtle
changes to this athlete's persona, I think Kane is money in the bank. As I have
said here many times, let him talk more and watch the Big Red Machine grow into
one of our most viable top-level hands" - Credit to The Ross Report at WWE.

Next weekend's house shows in Salt Lake City and Denver and will be headlined by Austin vs. Undertaker, Kane/Bradshaw vs. nWo, and RVD vs.

{Saturday 16th
February 2002} "Kane
certainly strikes me as a top main-event-level talent and will no doubt be given
the opportunity to get there on a full-time basis in the next few weeks.

The Big Red Machine needs to be hittin' on all cylinders around the time the
rosters split. Kane was great on the "Weakest Link" (scheduled to air
March 10) and has the ability to expand his character when he starts speaking
more on our programs" - Credit to The Ross Report at WWE.

will air on March 10th.

said that Kane sometime in the near future will go into an exclusive showdown
with another WWE superstar. Yet, to reveal something personal will keep Kane in

and no one else - Credit to WrestleZone.
